Heart, Chiz ready to have a baby

Actress Heart Evangelista has said that she and her husband Sen. Chiz Escudero are ready to have a baby.

“I’m eating healthy and maybe losing some water weight to prepare to gain pounds. It’s a bit complicated,” said Evangelista, at the launch of her hand-painted luxury bags recently, during an interview for “Bandila” news program on ABS-CBN.

Evangelista, 31, said that her husband is not rushing her to have a baby. But they will focus on having one after she finishes her commitments in January 2017.

In previous reports, Evangelista said that she wanted to have two to three children. Chiz would joke on having five kids, she also said.

“Two to three kids would be fine, so that I can focus on them,” Evangelista said then.

Escudero, 46, and Evangelista wed on February 15, 2015. The senator was previously married to Christine Flores in 2005 and their marriage was annulled in 2011. Escudero and Flores have two children.

Asked if her clients would request for a specific design in painting a hand-bag, Evangelista said: “Sometimes they request but most of the time no dahil choice yun ng artist.”

Evangelista said that she now has a wait-list of clients who want to avail of her hand-painting bags.

The actress, who is also an author and an animal rights advocate, thanked her supporters for the high ratings of their romantic-comedy “Juan Happy Love Story” on GMA 7.

“Parang early Christmas naman ang feeling!!!! Maraming salamat Sa Mataas Na ratings:) di niyo Kami iniwan Pero si Juan ano Na?! love you guys! A BIG thank you for the love and support!:) you made me fall in love with what I do all over again,” said Evangelista on Instagram.
